Frank Gore. He'll get another 125+ against Arizona, and at least 80-90 against Denver, giving him 1,700+ on the season.

LT won't get enough touches in the last couple of games, and LJ will come close but fall a little short.

You're aware that LJ still has 3 games to play right?

Yes, what's your point?

Is there really any need to elaborate?

Yes, there really is.

Have you seen the way Frank Gore has been running the past 6 games? With the exception being the Saints game when SF had to abandon the run pretty early, he's had at least 130 rush yards in 5 of the last 6. His remaining games are Arizona and Denver, ranked 18th and 12th in rush defense. LJ has to play Jacksonville and San Diego, both ranked in the top 10 in rush D, in addition to Oakland. I think he'll come close, but Gore will edge him out. What's so hard to believe about that? :x

You're right, Gore has been tearing it up lately. But if you watched the game last night, then you know that he was averaging 2.5 yards a carry until the last few minutes when Seattle had pretty much given up. Denver will almost surely shut him down. On the other hand, you have another RB who has been tearing it up on a weekly basis. All he has to do is perform at a standard level over the course of 3 games. His climb is much less steep. Gore basically needs to have the best game of his career against Arizona in order to have a shot. The odds largely favor LJ, and that is my point. But, we're all entitled to our opinions, and I respect yours. Just seemed like you kinda brushed LJ off your shoulder in your initial post.

Huh? I said LJ would come very close but Gore would win it. How's that brushing him off?

By all means, I want LJ to do well. He's the star of my fantasy team. 8)

I guess just the way I read it in my head. Maybe I was just looking for more of an explanation as to why you thought LJ would get shut down for 3 consecutive weeks (or at least 2), which is what would have to happen for your scenario to come true. You later pointed to his schedule, so I see where you're coming from. Still, Gore is a long shot at this point, IMO. Denver has a better shot at shutting him down than LJ does of getting shut down twice. It just seems so obvious to me that LJ will finish with more yards. That's why I jumped down your throat.

Oh I don't expect LJ to get shut down at all. I just expect Gore to put up more yards.

Oh but you did. That's my point. You said that Gore would win it by rushing for 220-230 more yards. That's why I pointed out that LJ still has 3 games to play. If you were to say that you thought Gore would rush for 220-230 against Arizona alone, then I probably wouldn't have responded. If he were to rip up Arizona like that, then he would have a decent shot. In your scenario, LJ needs to be shut down a few times, which is unlikely. Regardless of his opponents, as he has regularly made very good defenses look bad.

The first time Gore played the Cards, the Cards held him to under ninety yards. So he is out. I think that LT will start to get fewer carries, and that LJ should win this by a comfortable (50+) margin.

A. He had only 16 carries
B. We were playing from behind due to turnovers, therefore not much of a run game
